Bolda Farmer Producer Company Limited

Our place is at House Number 140 in Ashola, which is part of the Kalamnuri area. We are a farmer producer company, which basically means a bunch of us neighbors decided to work as one unit. It’s a small operation and we mostly focus on what’s growing in the fields right around us. You won't find any corporate suits here, just people who know how to drive a tractor and plant a row. We started this because it was getting harder to get a good price for our stuff on our own. Now we sit down together and figure out the best way forward. The office is just a room with a desk and some chairs where we drink tea and talk shop. Ashola is a small place, so everyone knows what we are doing anyway. We don't really do much in the way of advertising. Most of our members are just people we’ve known for years. Sometimes we have disagreements about which crop to focus on, but we usually work it out in the end. It’s a lot of work to keep the company running alongside our own farms, but we think it’s worth the effort. We just take things as they come and try to keep our heads down. It’s not about being fancy, it's just about getting the job done for the community.
